Awesome shop, Trees, but where is the lift?

Sorry, Trees, but there are definite wiggles in the reflection of that light in "Top Coat Finished, Clear to Go.jpg". Might need a longer board and some 800 grit. Gonna buff it?

Wish my paint job was as nice as your floor!

Very nice

Just found this thread.

Nice job Trees. What a great shop!

The floor looks terrific. Glad I could be of some help to you.

I am anxious to see your pics after you get your stuff moved in.

Not building an airplane? I guess then it's a good thing you admit to being the janitor, because I don't see any medical board certificates on the walls....

In a while, Chet.

Looks great - you've waited a long time for that shop and worked REALLY hard building it - time to enjoy!

The foot prints are just like writing your name somewhere in the concrete during a pour!

I didn't put non-skid on my floor - there's enough Rambo dog-hair between the color and clear I'll be fine!

For a computer illiterate, taking and posting pictures has been the most difficult part of this project!!

Last of the pics until I get into the moving in process. The 18 inch roller really lets you rapidly get the coating uniform. Wolverine recommended a 3/8 to 1/2 inch lint/shed free nap. I used the 1/2 inch and it worked great. It is important to not exceed your reach with the roller when you are laying out your strips. The second picture was taken when we were half way through the color coating and mixing the last batch of color. The last picture is of the finished floor (clear applied just as the primer coat except we spread using the roller only which worked fine.
